Rothmoor 264.—(P.A.) lair acceptances have been received for the Napier Park Racing Club’s autumn meeting, which opens to-day. There will probably be only five starters in the Omaranui Hurdles. The Absurd gelding Wamba is not •verburdened; the distance is a likely one for Sunray. Warpath and Black Art should set the pace in the Esk Handicap, but if Blissfulness gets a good run he might I v. in. Ngata heads the list in the Napier Cup, and on .his Wanganui form he will take a lot of beating. Gasbag may not be ready yet. Anomaly an J Sycorax must run well.

Morose looks to have a mortgage over the Sapling Stakes. King’s Trumpeter and Viyella may shake up the ton v. eight. s ‘

Hyttus reads well in the Wolter Handicap, though Makere and T;grinia should not be far away at x hc finish.

The Redcliffe Hack Welter should go to Correspondent or Dissertation, on recent form. Munus is a good wclh r horse.

Asterina and Fulsome will probably be found fighting out the finish in the Flying Handicap. H'-g Chief and Red Stag appeal 1 to have the best chance of capturing the Maiden Hack Scurry. Affectation (Kilbroney—Simper) has been allotted top weight in the Scott Memorial Handicap at the Rangitikei meeting and Prince Martian. has been given 7.2 in the cup.
